DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe first book to chronicle the golden age of Japanese bicycle design. Japanese bicycles have long been at the forefront of both competitive and recreational cycling—from top-flight racing bicycles to collectible custom fixed-gear frames. This comprehensive and stunningly illustrated book presents a fascinating overview of the most prolific and celebrated period of Japanese bicycle design, between the 1950s and the ’80s, when uniquely talented artisanal craftsmen produced some of the most iconic bicycles of the twentieth century. From the recognizable silhouettes of major manufacturers like Fuji, Panasonic, and Bridgestone to the rarest frames from artisanal builders like 3-Rensho or Nagasawa, Japanese bicycle designers dominated the cycling world and created machines that are still revered today. Illustrated with specially commissioned photographs of fully restored bikes, and supplemented with artifacts and ephemera from technical manuals to photography of the legendary Keirin racing circuits, this book is must-have for anyone with an interest in cycling and the phenomenon of Japanese design.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt was once said of the scientist and diplomat Jeffries Wyman that he tried to raise his children, after their mother's death, by writing them letters. In 1950, Wyman spent six months in Japan--giving scientific lectures, meeting notables, searching out traditional villages, and writing intense, keenly observant letters to his then-college-age children. Published for the first time, these letters offer a candid and startling depiction of Wyman's experience in postwar Japan. His letters to his daughter Anne offer an unusual perspective on Japan at a time when most Americans there got a far less intimate view of Japanese life. Wyman embraced the culture of a country that welcomed him, from the lowliest peasants to the Emperor--a country where his epiphany in a tea garden would later define the future of allosteric biochemistry.
